The UK is on a determined path towards achieving its Clean Power 2030 goals, driven by significant investments in both onshore and offshore wind energy. Independent advice from the National Energy System Operator (NESO) has been instrumental in shaping the energy infrastructure required to achieve this target. In an average weather year, the 2030 power system will generate as much power from clean sources as Great Britain consumes annually, aiming for at least 95% of total generation from renewable sources. This will reduce the carbon intensity of the country's power generation from 171gCO2e/kWh in 2023 to well below 50gCO2e/kWh by 2030.
